<p>As title. Are there any specific preconditions to adding a priority/nomination label, must X people agree on it, ...</p>

<p>Labels can be added and changed at any time. I personally leave room for discussions to accomodate different timezones and schedules.<br>
When we get closer to the week's meeting (like now) I try having all (or most) issues with a priority label so if by this time two or more people (getting the context right) agree I think it's fine.</p>

<p>my usual take is if we have 2 or more people giving an opinion and on an agreement on something let's label the issue</p>
